Kehena Beach Villa

Aloha and E Komo Mai to Kehena Beach Luxury Villa

Kehena Beach Villa Perched high on the edge of a lush coconut studded absolute oceanfront
sea cliff at the dead end of this quaint coastal beach community's most
exclusive cul de sac stands this romantic gated secure landmark villa
that was thoughtfully designed to be enjoyed by a couple who desire a
level of privacy, comfort, safety and luxury that is more akin to a high
end resort but is value priced and capable of accommodating a group of
up to 8 adults if desired. The fact that the owner controls the
oceanfront of magnificent Kehena Cove from and including the beach
lookout that abuts Kehena Black Sand Beach all the way to the tip of the
cove where the villa is situated assures a high level of privacy and
exclusivity that is not shared by neighboring vacation rentals. In
fact, there is no immediate neighbor on either oceanfront side of the
villa which is a fortress surrounded by 6 foot solid lava rock walls and
accessed by a coded artistic gate that was custom designed by famed
Honolulu based French sculptor Frederic Zimmer. The entire oceanfront
block is adorned by a series of artistic gates and custom matching light
fixtures that automatically illuminate the gorgeously landscaped lava
rock walls nightly. The only other oceanfront home on the block is the
smaller sister residence which is equally private and luxurious.

The villa is a landmark for Kehena Beach and is, in fact, the closest
oceanfront residence to the beach. It is situated on the widest
oceanfront parcel in the community and spans nearly 200 feet on a 50
foot sea cliff that is typically teeming with sea birds. The privileged
guests of the villa will not only enjoy the direct views of Kehena
Beach and Bay, but also the extraordinary sunrises and moonrises and the
cooling trade winds due to the primarily northeasterly orientation of
the oceanfront aspect of the villa. The oceanfront deck, or
"lanai" has been updated and redesigned, nearly doubling its size in
2014 per our former guest's recommendations and is certain to be the
most popular living area of the villa. It features a new refreshing Endless pool with multiple jets in which one may swim or relax and take in the amazing views
in solar heated comfort. At night time it can be illuminated. The pool can be
accessed from either the open uncovered lanai or the covered pool
"cabana" which has a translucent roof and comfortable outdoor resort
style feel lounging by the pool and enjoying the view.
The newly tiled lanai is fully furnished with teak furniture including
a custom bar, adjustable cushioned chaise loungers, and bar height dining table and chairs. One has the option of
dining "al fresco" or under the covered portion of the lanai which has a
translucent roof to provide the added illumination of the stars and
moon at night. All of the oceanfront railing is clear glass. The Endless pool directly abuts the deck on 2 sides and has stairs
from within for ease of access. There is an outdoor lava rock shower
with hot water adjacent to the pool deck.

The courtyard to the villa greets you with an illuminated pond with
nocturnal waterfall feature and a stunning variety of guppies and
goldfish. An adjacent screened "lobby" area is well furnished to
accommodate your party and is the ideal site to gather in the evening by
the soothing sounds of the waterfall and the chorus of coqui frogs that
it invites. The grounds are professionally landscaped and meticulously
maintained. The garden foliage is striking and includes many varieties
of bromeliads, orchids and heliconias. > The gym is a recent
addition and has a wall of sliding glass doors that overlook the
courtyard gardens. It has a wall mounted TV/DVD player with access to
over 250 channels as well as a blender, fridge, and sink for your
convenience. Per our former guests recommendations, the gym has been
updated to include a hybrid elliptical trainer/recumbent bicycle so that
a lower impact cardiovascular workout can be accomplished. Dumb bells
and a Gold's Platinum professional gym that is equipped even for bench
pressing or squats without the need for a spotter is provided. >
The oceanfront yard is terraced with a lava rock walkway above that
has a unique imported covered teak swing for two. You can also access
the basement level office which houses a printer and access to Wifi.
Below there is a grassy lawn that is dotted with mature coconut trees
and a cozy hammock. You will also encounter a new 9 person oceanfront
spa. Don't forget to bring your I-Pod so you can plug it into the spa
outlet and enjoy your favorite tunes.

Upon your arrival, you will notice
that the oceanfront block is secured with 6 foot lava rock walls
adorned with a series of elaborate artistic copper gates and matching
light fixtures. All were custom designed by famed Honolulu based French
sculptor Frederic Zimmer. The entry pillars of the estate will remain
illuminated throughout the entire night for your safety and security.
The estate is a fortress surrounded by 6 foot lava rock walls. For your added peace of mind, the property is secured with "panic buttons"
monitored 24 hours a day by Alert Alarm of Hawaii. . A 24 hour Video Surveillance is also provided,

If you can not resist the urge to visit Kehena Beach, it is a mere 5
minute walk from this, the closest oceanfront residence. This gorgeous
strip of sand is not to be visited by the faint of heart. Although
nudity is generally deemed unlawful in Hawaii, this beach has been
routinely frequented by naturists since its formation back in the 1955
lava flow. Sturdy shoes are recommended to walk down the rocky trail to
the beach. It is steep in some places and not deemed suitable for
young children, the elderly, or anyone who might have significant
physical limitations. It is, however, well worth the effort. The
black sand, unlike the sand of most of Hawaii's "black" sand beaches is
granular and pure black. The beach itself is reputed to be among
Hawaii's most scenic beaches.

The privileged guests of
Kehena Beach Villa will enjoy unobstructed direct views of Kehena Beach
and Bay and extraordinary sunrises and will capture the cooling trade
winds due to the primarily northeasterly orientation of the oceanfront
aspect of the home. The cliff front is typically teeming with sea
birds.

scenic beaches. Kehena Bay is perhaps best known for the
Spinner Dolphins that frequent the beach year round and can often be
seen swimming among well-seasoned local swimmers who brave the often
powerful currents and rip tides. It is not unusual to see Spinner
Dolphins performing acrobatics with the naked eye directly in front of
the house. Whales can occasionally be viewed during the season from
about November to April. At times , one can hear the eerie sounds of
the Humpback Whales, particularly throughout the evening and night. Sea
turtles can be spotted occasionally year round. The reef is teeming
with marine life and on calmer days one can see various species of reef
fish.

First time visitors to Kehena Beach are discouraged from entering the
ocean, particularly the young, elderly, and those with physical
limitations , as drownings in the area do occasionally occur. Please
don't be fooled by the claims that many will make of the ease of
swimming with the dolphins! Undoubtedly, there are frequently
opportunities to watch a considerable number of people swimming with the
dolphins, but to do so as a malahini (newcomer) is not without
considerable risk to the life and safety of the swimmer. The beautiful
but rocky shoreline can prove to be unforgiving. There is a
drum circle that regularly occurs on Sundays on the beach. You can view
it on U-tube. It tends to be very reminiscent of the sixties. The atmosphere is laid back
and includes a very eclectic crowd. There are no facilities at Kehena
Beach , but you are guests of the nearest oceanfront estate to the
beach, so you are only minutes away by foot from all the comforts you
may desire .

You may wish to access a lunar calendar and make a reservation around
the time of the full moon. The experience of watching the moonlight
shimmering on Kehena Bay cannot be aptly described with words. On
certain months, you may be afforded the opportunity to watch the moon
rise over the ocean horizon.
